T1 - Structuring of dielectric and metallic materials with ultrashort laser pulses between 20 fs and 3 ps N2 - Laser-micromachining of barium aluminum borosilicate glass, fused silica and stainless steel has been extended down to a pulse duration of 20 fs generated by a Ti:sapphire laser system at a wavelength of 0.8 micrometer. A systematic study shows that, below 100 fs, an enhanced precision and a substantial decrease of the ablation threshold fluence in comparison to pulse laser processing with pulses in the picosecond and nanosecond range could be achieved. The physical mechanism and the technical relevance of this novel microtechnology is discussed.

Layer thicknesses from below the optical penetration depth to above the thermal diffusion length (60 nm–13 µm) were examined. After correction of the damage-threshold values for the fraction of energy effectively absorbed by the material, the damage threshold was found to increase linearly with the layer thickness, also for film thicknesses below the optical penetration depth of a-C:H. The threshold fluence reached the bulk value for a layer thickness equal to the thermal diffusion length. The thermal diffusion coefficient was obtained from fitting the experimental data. Several phenomena like graphitization, blistering, exfoliation, and ablation were observed for different fluence regimes and film thicknesses.

As model systems, doped poly(methylmetacrylate) (PMMA) on titanium and tungsten substrates were selected. The ablation threshold and irradiation spot morphology of titanium and tungsten were compared for femtosecond (fs) and nanosecond (ns) laser irradiation and different pulse numbers. Nanosecond laser treatment resulted in a non-homogeneous surface morphology for both titanium and tungsten substrates. Femtosecond irradiation of tungsten revealed a homogeneous ablation spot with little changes in the surface morphology. For titanium, the formation of columnar structures within the irradiation spot was observed. Two different dopant concentrations were used for PMMA to achieve an equal linear absorption coefficient for the femto- and nanosecond laser wavelengths of 790 and 1064 nm. The best results were achieved for the removal of doped PMMA by femtosecond laser irradiation, where only a minimal modification of the metal surface was detected. In the case of nanosecond laser exposure, a pronounced change of the structure was observed, suggesting that damage-free cleaning of the selected metal may only be possible using femtosecond laser pulses. Different experimental parameters, such as laser fluence, pulse repetition rate and sample speed were also investigated to optimize the cleaning quality of doped PMMA from tungsten substrates with femtosecond laser pulses.

Translated Abstract Characterization of Plasmapolymers by Thermoluminescence Thin plasma polymer films were deposited using the pulsed plasma (pp) mode. These plasma polymers should possess a more chemically regular structure because of the lower monomer fragmentation during the short plasma pulses and the chemical chain propagation during the plasma-less periods than those produced by the conventional continuous-wave (cw) mode. In addition to the use of the classic thin film characterization method XPS the method of thermoluminescence was applied to characterize defects and structural specifics in the polymer films produced by pp or cw-plasma mode. The thermoluminescence method was applied to functional groups-carrying plasma polymer layers, which are used in medical technology for forming biocompatible and bioactive coatings or in metal-polymer composites as adhesion-promoting interlayers.

A systematic study of nonlinear interaction of various transparent dielectric materials as e.g. glasses, fused silica, and polymers, with laser-pulses in the intensity range of up to 1013 W cm-2 is presented. On the other hand, femtosecond-pulse laser processing in the visible spectral range (300 fs; 620 nm, ~ 2 eV) allows precise microstructuring of transparent dielectrics without disruption of the remnant material. Damage and ablation threshold fluences occur above 1.2 J cm-2 at both silicate glasses and fused silica. Two different photon absorption mechanisms have been observed. The first occurs during the initial laser pulses in the incubation range. There, multiphoton absorption results in moderate energy volume densities. These are sufficient to generate morphological changes and optically active defect sites (colour centres) which provide a much higher absorptivity relevant for the second mechanism. It results in gasification without participation of melt.

A1 - Krüger, Jörg A1 - Kautek, Wolfgang T1 - Subpicosecond-pulse laser microstructuring for enhanced reproducibility of biosensors N2 - Curved substrates can be micro-structured by laser ablation, which is not possible with standard lithographic methods. The novel femtosecond-pulse laser technique allows the production of defined and reproducible micro-perforations of originally analyte-impermeable membranes. The trans-membrane analyte flux can be controlled both by the variation of the laser focus diameter resulting in different areas of single perforations, and the number of perforations in arrays on small membrane areas. This leads to a higher degree of variability as well as reproducibility of the diffusion qualities of sensor membranes, and marks the main innovation with this technique compared to the hand-made mechanical perforation by specially grinded needles used up to now. Touchless micro-perforation of small membrane areas with negligible heat damage of the structures adjacent to the perforation allows the application of ‘analyte door’ membranes directly onto curved surfaces of miniaturized needle-sensors assigned for in vivo glucose monitoring, for the first time.

Laser fluence levels must stay below the ablation and destruction threshold of the parchment or paper substrate, and have to surpass the threshold of the contaminant matter. Foreign layers to be removed must exhibit a higher optical density than the artifact substrates. Synthetic carbonaceous dirt modelled by water-soluble black crayons showed a characteristically weak featureless laser-induced plasma spectroscopy spectrum near the noise limit. It turned out that laser-induced plasma spectroscopy is of limited use in monitoring halting points (or etch-stops) because it relies on the destruction not only of the laterally inhomogenously distributed contaminant but also of pigment phases on a microscopically rough parchment substrate. Laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy, however, promises to be a valuable non-destructive testing technique for etch-stop monitoring.

Absorbing filters (Schott BG18 and BG36) served as targets. The direct focusing technique was used under single- and multi-pulse irradiation conditions. Ablation threshold fluences were determined from a semi-logarithmic plot of the ablation crater diameter versus laser fluence. The threshold fluence decreases for a shorter pulse duration and an increasing number of pulses. The multi-pulse ablation threshold fluences are similar to those of undoped glass material (~1 J cm-2). That means that the multi-pulse ablation threshold is independent on the doping level of the filters. For more than 100 pulses per spot and all pulse durations applied, the threshold fluence is practically constant. This leads to technically relevant ablation threshold values.

For tau <100 fs, the dominant channel for free electron generation is found to be either impact or multiphoton ionization (MPI) depending on the size of the band gap. The observed MPI rates are substantially lower than those predicted by the Keldysh theory. We demonstrate that sub-10-fs laser pulses open up the way to reversible nonperturbative nonlinear optics (at intensities greater than 1014 W/cm2 slightly below damage threshold) and to nanometer-precision laser ablation (slightly above threshold) in dielectric materials.

In all composites, femtosecond laser scans with a fluence of less than 2 J cm-2 produce well defined cuts with smooth side walls in contrast to the nanosecond laser result where extremely incongruent ablation is observed. Visible lasers should not be applicable because SiC and the glasses are practically transparent. Visible subpicosecond pulses of high intensity in the TW cm-2 range allow multi-photon absorption accompanied by incubation phenomena. The morphology of the groove edges reveal the contrasting ablation thresholds and rates of the fibre and glass materials. The ablation thresholds of the transparent components, i.e. the glass matrices and SiC, are about one order of magnitude greater than that of carbon which is ~ 0.15 J cm-2. Incubation effects are important for the absorption mechanisms in the transparent materials. When a critical number of pulses has not been reached at the SiC-glass composites, only the glass is preferentially ablated, and the fibres remain intact. This is in contrast to the C-glass composites where the ablation behaviour is opposite.

The damage and failure behaviour of protective devices has been investigated dependent on practical conditions such as pulse duration, laser .uence, pulse number, and repetition rate. The e.ects of laser-irradiation on materials can be roughly divided into transient ones like laserinduced transmission (LIT) or short-lived colour centres and permanent damages like the stable colour centres and ablation. The former e.ects are particularly important for transparent devices like laser goggles. To obtain a complete overview on laser safety issues and the prevention of failure there are two important .elds of investigation: 1. the e.ects of laser radiation on human eyes and skin, and 2. on the possible protection materials. Both .elds have been addressed during the recently .nished German project SAFEST (safety aspects in femtosecond technology). The amount of safety data available in the ultrashort pulse region has been increased remarkably. This allows for a re-evaluation of known laser protection materials for this region of pulse durations and for the evaluation of new designs that promise high protection levels while being light-weight and convenient to use.

T1 - Femtosecond-Pulse Laser Ablation of Human Corneas N2 - A femtosecond pulse laser in the visible spectral region shows promise as a potentially new powerful corneal sculpting tool. It combines the clinical and technical advantages of visible wavelengths with the high ablation quality observed with nanosecond-pulse excimer lasers at 193 nm. A femtosecond and a nanosecond dye laser with pulse durations of 300 fs and 7 ns, and centre wavelengths at 615 nm and 600 nm, respectively, both focused to an area of the order of 10–5 cm2, have been applied to human corneal ablation. Nanosecond laser pulses caused substantial tissue disruption within a 30–100 m range from the excision edge at all fluences above the ablation threshold of F th60 J cm–2 (I th9 GW cm–2). Completely different excisions are produced by the femtosecond-pulse laser: high quality ablations of the Bowman membrane and the stroma tissue characterised by damage zones of less than 0.5 m were observed at all fluences above ablation threshold of F th1 J cm–2 or I th3 TW cm–2 (3×1012 W cm–2). The transparent cornea material can be forced to absorb ultrashort pulses of extremely high intensity. The fs laser generates its own absorption by a multiphoton absorption process.

T1 - Optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) on semiconductor electrodes by means of femtosecond and nanosecond-pulse lasers N2 - In situ optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) on centrosymmetric crystalline semiconductor electrodes opens up a new field of in situ investigations of hurried solid state interfaces and metal front contacts relevant to electronic and photovoltaic devices, which are rarely accessible by other methods. Photoelectrochemical nanosecond- and femtosecond-pulse laser investigations of silicon (111) electrodes show that in situ SHG is feasible in such complex interfacial systems. In a p-p polarization configuration, the azimuthal dependence of the SHG from oxide-covered and bare n-Si (111) electrodes, with and without Ni contact deposits, have been studied. Etching and regrowth of silicon oxides as well as burried interfacial electric field distributions were monitored. In situ SHG is shown to be extremely sensitive to trapped interfacial charge, crystal misorientations and surface step arrays. An advantage of femtosecond-pulses is the fact that illumination fluences that are well below the damage threshold, but still with sufficient power density, can be applied.

During the cleaning process, the ejection of particles was monitored in situ by means of a dust monitor (8 size classes, ranging from 0.3 µm to >2 µm) and ex situ using a mini-cascade impactor (MKI, 5 stages). The cleaning result was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) considering possible laser-induced damages to the substrate. Size distributions of emitted particles were measured depending on the processing parameters: laser fluence, F, and pulse number per spot, N. High numbers of large (>2 µm) particles were collected by the mini-cascade impactor indicating a gas dynamical liftoff process. Obviously, these particles were not affected by the laser-matter interaction. The different methods (SEM, MKI, and dust monitor) are compared with respect to their usefulness for a proper interpretation of the cleaning results.

The optical properties of the a-C:H layers were obtained via spectroscopic ellipsometry and correlated with their mechanical and chemical properties. The layers from pure RF plasma exhibit a higher absorption constant in the visible spectral range and a higher refractive index. All layers are nearly transparent in the NIR spectral range making them candidates for optical thin layer systems. The laser damage behaviour of the a-C:H layers was investigated with ultrashort pulses. The damage thresholds were consistent with the absorption constants of the layers. Interesting damage morphologies were observed indicating a sensitivity of this experiment to sub-structures in the layer.

The gold layers were deposited on BK7 glass by an electron beam evaporation process and characterized by atomic force microscopy and ellipsometry. A linear dependence of the ablation threshold fluence Fth on the layer thickness d was found for d ≤ 180 nm. If a film thickness of about 180 nm was reached, the damage threshold remained constant at its bulk value. For different numbers of pulses per spot (N-on-1), bulk damage thresholds of ~0.7 J cm-2 (1-on-1), 0.5 J cm-2 (10-on-1), 0.4 J cm-2 (100-on-1), 0.25 J cm-2 (1000-on-1), and 0.2 J cm-2 (10000-on-1) were obtained experimentally indicating an incubation behavior. A characteristic layer thickness of Lc ˜ 180 nm can be defined which is a measure for the heat penetration depth within the electron gas before electron–phonon relaxation occurs. Lc is by more than an order of magnitude larger than the optical absorption length of α-1 ˜ 12 nm at 793 nm wavelength.

Im Fokus: Fasermaterial, Füllstoffe und Leimung N2 - Restauratoren können verschiedene Papierarten mit dem bloßen Auge aufgrund von Merkmalen in der Textur und der Oberflächenbeschaffenheit, seinem Aussehen im Durchlicht sowie an Griff und Klang grob unterscheiden. Dabei ist sich der Restaurator stets der Tatsache bewusst, dass es sich lediglich um eine erste grobe Einschätzung handeln kann. Erst bei mikroskopischen Analysen und physikalischen Experimenten treten Charakteristika zu Tage, die eine weitere Annäherung an die Zusammensetzung des Papiers und damit seiner Provenienz erlauben. Gegenstand dieser Arbeit war es, ein europäisches Hadernpapier, ein holzhaltiges Zeichenpapier und ein Whatman®-Filterpapier mit zwei mikroskopischen Methoden und einer Verbrennungstechnik zu untersuchen. Das Fasermaterial, die Füllstoffe, die Leimung und eventuelle Verunreinigungen wurden detailliert evaluiert. Neben konventioneller Lichtmikroskopie kam die weniger bekannte Umweltrasterelektronenmikroskopie (ESEM = Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy) zum Einsatz, die neben der bildlichen Darstellung der Probenoberflächen zusätzlich eine Elementanalyse derselben gestattet. Letzteres erfordert allerdings das Vorhandensein eines zusätzlichen Röntgenspektrometers. Darüber hinaus wurden die verschiedenen Papiere trocken verascht. Es wurde eine oxidative Zerstörung der organischen Stoffe gewährleistet bis nur noch nichtbrennbare mineralische Asche zu verzeichnen war. Die Komplementarität der eingesetzten Methoden wird demonstriert und ein Einblick in die Zusammensetzung und Struktur der Papiere ermöglicht. Die Analysemethoden sind durch ihren partiell zerstörenden Charakter bzw. Limitierungen hinsichtlich der Objektgröße nur bedingt für die Untersuchung am Original geeignet, sehr wohl aber dafür, das Probenmaterial für Versuchsreihen genau zu definieren und zu standardisieren.

One challenging task concerning the production of multimode fibers is the enhancement of laser-induced damage thresholds. A higher damage threshold enables a higher transmitted average power at a given fiber diameter or the same power inside a thinner fiber to obtain smaller focus spots. In principle, different material parameters affect the damage threshold. Besides the quality of the preform bulk material itself, the drawing process during the production of the fiber and the preparation of the fiber end surfaces influence the resistance. Therefore, the change of the laser-induced damage threshold of preform materials was investigated in dependence on a varying thermal treatment and preparation procedure. Single and multi-pulse laser-induced damage thresholds of preforms (F300, Heraeus) were measured using a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm wavelength emitting pulses with a duration of 15 ns, a pulse energy of 12 mJ and a repetition rate of 10 Hz. The temporal and spatial shape of the laser pulses were controlled accurately. Laser-induced damage thresholds in a range from 150 J cm-2 to 350 J cm-2 were determined depending on the number of pulses applied to the same spot, the thermal history and the polishing quality of the samples, respectively.

A Michelson interferometer is used to generate near-equal-energy double-pulse sequences with a temporal pulse delay from -20 to +20 ps between the cross-polarized individual fs-laser pulses (~0.2 ps resolution). The results of multiple double-pulse irradiation sequences are characterized by means of Scanning Electron and Scanning Force Microscopy. Specifically in the sub-ps delay domain striking differences in the surface morphologies can be observed, indicating the importance of the laser-induced free-electron plasma in the conduction band of the solids for the formation of LIPSS.

In this work, the influence of laser irradiation on phosphoric acid coated multicrystalline silicon PV-wafers on the wafer surface structure, the phosphorous depth distribution and the electrical contact resistance within the laser treated area as well as the electrical series resistance of laserprocessed solar cells was evaluated. Different laser processing settings were tested including pulsed and continuous wave (cw) laser sources (515 nm, 532 nm, 1064 nm wavelength). Complementary numerical simulations using the finite element method (FEM) were conducted to explain the impact of the laser parameters on the melting behavior (melt duration and geometry). It was found that the melt duration is a key parameter for a successful laser Doping process. Our simulations at a laser wavelengths of 515 nm reveal that low-repetition rate (<500 kHz) laser pulses of 300 ns duration generate a melt duration of ~0.35 µs, whereas upon scanning cw-laser radiation at 532 nm prolongates the melt duration by at least one order of magnitude. Experimentally, the widely used ns-laser pulses did not lead to satisfying laser irradiation results. In contrast, cw-laser radiation and scan velocities of less than 2 m/s led to suitable laser doping featuring low electrical resistances in the laser treated areas.

However, it is challenging to establish a low-cost process by using pulsed laser tools. So far a single-step process only leads to satisfying results utilizing cw-lasers. In this paper we have examined a two-step process to produce laser-doped selective emitters on multicrystalline textured standard silicon photovoltaic wafers (90-Ω/sq-Emitter, SiN-antireflection coating (ARC)). The precise ARC removal by near-infrared fs-laser pulses (30 fs, 800 nm), and the doping of uncoated silicon wafers by ns-laser pulses (8 ns, 532 nm) were systematically investigated. In the fs-experiment, optimum conditions for ARC removal were identified. In the nsexperiments under suitable conditions (melting regime), the phosphorous concentration underneath the wafer surface was significantly increased and the sheet resistance was reduced by nearly a factor of two. Moreover, electrical measurements on fired metallization fingers deposited on the laser processed wafers showed low contact resistances. Hence, wafer conditioning with combined fs-laser- and ns-laser-processes are expected to be a promising technology for producing selective emitters.

T1 - Cleaning of artificially soiled papers by infrared and mid-infrared lasers N2 - One of the most important materials presenting and witnessing human culture is paper. The cleaning of paper is often necessary because contamination must be removed so that the fragile organic substrate can be preserved. The conventional cleaning methods are mechanical or involve the application of chemicals. These methods can damage drawings or print layers to some extent or make the original paper substrate brittle. More specifically, the use of a scalpel blade can cause damage to fibers. Chemical cleaning is difficult to perform locally, can dissolve foreign matter that then migrates into the paper substrate, or involves volatile organic compounds that can be harmful to the conservator. There is, therefore, a need for new conservation technologies aimed at the safe cleaning of paper. Lasers have proved to be an appropriate tool for cleaning as the energy dose and penetration depth at the specific point of contamination can be controlled. Additionally, if used properly, laser cleaning is not destructive to the paper.

Nearly equal-energy double-pulse sequences are generated allowing the temporal pulse delay Δt between the cross-polarized individual fs-laser pulses to be varied from -40 ps to +40 ps with a resolution of ~0.2 ps. The surface morphologies of the irradiated surface areas are characterized by means of scanning electron and scanning force microscopy. Particularly for dielectrics in the sub-ps delay range striking differences in the orientation and spatial characteristics of the LIPSS can be observed. For fused silica, a significant decrease of the LIPSS spatial periods from ~790 nm towards ~550 nm is demonstrated for delay changes of less than ~2 ps. In contrast, for silicon under similar irradiation conditions, the LIPSS periods remain constant (~760 nm) for delays up to 40 ps.

Failure of those fibers is a significant risk. The determination of laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) on fiber end facets according to ISO 21254 standard is needed. In the past, single pulse nanosecond laser experiments showed an improvement of LIDT with increasing fiber core diameter for 1064 nm wavelength and a constant beam diameter of 50 µm. This paper pays particular attention to the influence of the laser beam diameter on damage resistance. All-silica fiber types (LEONI) with different core diameters (100–600 µm) were investigated using beam diameters in a range from 30 µm to 100 µm. For comparison experiments on fused silica preform material (Heraeus F300) were performed. On one hand, surface LIDT of fused silica preform material decreases significantly with increasing beam size. A model considering a random distribution of point defects explains the experimental data qualitatively. On the other hand, LIDT of fiber end facets stays constant. White light microscopy results suggest that the point defect density on fiber end facets is lower compared to the preform surface due to an excellent surface polish quality.

For this purpose, the nonlinear generation of conduction band electrons in silicon and their relaxation is numerically calculated using a two-temperature model approach including intrapulse changes of optical properties, transport, diffusion and recombination effects. Following the idea that surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) can be excited when the material turns from semiconducting to metallic state, the 'SPP active area' is calculated as function of fluence and double-pulse delay up to several picoseconds and compared to the experimentally observed rippled surface areas. Evidence is presented that multi-photon absorption explains the large increase of the rippled area for temporally overlapping pulses. For longer double-pulse delays, relevant relaxation processes are identified. The results demonstrate that femtosecond LIPSS on silicon are caused by the excitation of SPP and can be controlled by temporal pulse shaping.

The direct focusing technique was employed under single- and multi-pulse irradiation conditions. Ablation threshold fluences were determined from a semi-logarithmic plot of the ablation crater diameter vs. laser fluence. The damage threshold fluence decreases for shorter pulse durations. In the investigated pulse duration range, the measured multi-pulse ablation threshold fluences are practically similar to those of undoped glass material (~1 Jcm-2). That means that the multi-pulse ablation threshold is independent on the doping level of the filters. For more than 100 pulses per spot and all pulse durations applied, the threshold fluence saturates. This leads to technically relevant damage threshold values in the femtosecond laser pulse duration domain.

It could be observed, that the threshold fluence decreases for shorter pulse durations. The similarity of the measured multi-pulse threshold fluences with those of undoped glass material (around 1 J/cm^2 for a pulse duration of 30 fs) suggests that, for very short pulses, the threshold is independent on the doping level and therefore, linear absorption does not significantly contribute to laser-induced damage. For >100 pulses per spot and all pulse durations applied, the threshold fluences saturate. This independence on the number of applied pulses leads to technically relevant damage threshold values.

The ablation threshold fluences of the absorbing filters are comparable to those observed for transparent materials with 30-fs-pulses. These investigations together with scanning electron microscopy of the surface morphology after laser treatment provide insight into the interaction mechanism of the short pulses with the materials.

T1 - Ultrashort pulse laser interaction with anodic metal oxide layers in electrolyte contact N2 - The removal and accelerated corrosion monitoring of metal coating systems is of general interest in materials science and engineering technology. The femtosecond and nanosecond laser ablation and delamination at 800 nm and 532 nm, respectively, of anodic oxide layers on aluminium alloys in electrolyte contact were investigated. Laser-induced modifications of the oxide layer resulted in an ionic contact between electrolyte and metal, which produced a current transient and thus allowed the in-situ electrochemical monitoring of the modification. Oxide coatings with different optical properties, almost transparent and opaque, were examined. The transparent anodic oxides showed contrasting ablation mechanisms in the nanosecond and femtosecond pulse duration regime: nanosecond pulses caused spallation, whereas femtosecond treatment led to ablation. Current signals measured in the transparent film were consistent with light absorption below the metal-oxide interface and with film spallation. Irradiation of the opaque coating yielded ionic current transients within the so-called shock-affected-zone of the oxide layer. This investigation provided insight into the role of the penetration depth of light and the heat-affected zone, the extent of the shock-affected zone, and the defect formation in the coating and at the solid-solid interface between metal and oxide.

T1 - Investigation of excimer laser ablation threshold of polymers using a microphone N2 - KrF excimer laser ablation of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyimide (PI) and polycarbonate (PC) in air was studied by an in situ monitoring technique using a microphone. The microphone signal generated by a short acoustic pulse represented the etch rate of laser ablation depending on the laser fluence, i.e., the ablation “strength”. From a linear relationship between the microphone output voltage and the laser fluence, the single-pulse ablation thresholds were found to be 30 mJ cm-2 for PET, 37 mJ cm-2 for PI and 51 mJ cm-2 for PC (20-pulses threshold). The ablation thresholds of PET and PI were not influenced by the number of pulses per spot, while PC showed an incubation phenomenon. A microphone technique provides a simple method to determine the excimer laser ablation threshold of polymer films.

T1 - Laser engineering of biomimetic surfaces N2 - The exciting properties of micro- and nano-patterned surfaces found in natural species hide a virtually endless potential of technological ideas, opening new opportunities for innovation and exploitation in materials science and engineering. Due to the diversity of biomimetic surface functionalities, inspirations from natural surfaces are interesting for a broad range of applications in engineering, including phenomena of adhesion, friction, wear, lubrication, wetting phenomena, self-cleaning, antifouling, antibacterial phenomena, thermoregulation and optics. Lasers are increasingly proving to be promising tools for the precise and controlled structuring of materials at micro- and nano-scales. When ultrashort-pulsed lasers are used, the optimal interplay between laser and material parameters enables structuring down to the nanometer scale. Besides this, a unique aspect of laser processing technology is the possibility for material modifications at multiple (hierarchical) length scales, leading to the complex biomimetic micro- and nano-scale patterns, while adding a new dimension to structure optimization. This article reviews the current state of the art of laser processing methodologies, which are being used for the fabrication of bioinspired artificial surfaces to realize extraordinary wetting, optical, mechanical, and biological-active properties for numerous applications. The innovative aspect of laser functionalized biomimetic surfaces for a wide variety of current and future applications is particularly demonstrated and discussed. The article concludes with illustrating the wealth of arising possibilities and the number of new laser micro/nano fabrication approaches for obtaining complex high-resolution features, which prescribe a future where control of structures and subsequent functionalities are beyond our current imagination.

ED - Bonse, Jörn T1 - Creation of Material Functions by Nanostructuring N2 - Surface nanostructures provide the possibility to create and tailor surface functionalities mainly via controlling their topography along with other chemical and physical material properties. One of the most appealing technologies for surface functionalization via micro- and nanostructuring is based on laser processing. This can be done either via direct contour-shaping of the irradiated material using a tightly focused laser beam or in a self-ordered way that allows employing larger laser beam diameters along with areal scanning to create a variety of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS). For the latter approach, particularly ultrashort pulsed lasers have recently pushed the borders across long-lasting limitations regarding the minimum achievable feature sizes and additionally boosted up the production times. This chapter reviews the plethora of recently investigated applications of LIPSS—for example, via imposing diffractive or plasmonic structural colors, the management of liquids and surface wetting properties, biomedical and bioinspired functionalities, beneficial effects in tribology for reducing friction and wear, the manipulation of optical scattering and absorption in photovoltaics, or the modification of magnetic or superconducting surface properties in other energy applications. The footprint of the LIPSS-based technology is explored in detail regarding the current state of industrialization, including an analysis of the market and associated LIPSS production costs.

N2 - Bacterial biofilms pose serious problems in medical and industrial settings. One of the major societal challenges lies in the increasing resistance of bacteria against biocides used in antimicrobial treatments, e.g., via overabundant use in medicine, industry, and agriculture or cleaning and disinfection in private households. Hence, new efficient bacteria-repellent strategies avoiding the use of biocides are strongly desired. One promising route to achieve bacteria-repellent surfaces lies in the contactless and aseptic large-area laser-processing of technical surfaces. Tailored surface textures, enabled by different laser-processing strategies that result in topographic scales ranging from nanometers to micrometers may provide a solution to this challenge. This article presents a current state-of-the-art review of laser-surface subtractive texturing approaches for controlling the biofilm formation for different bacterial strains and in different environments. Based on specific properties of bacteria and laser-processed surfaces, the challenges of anti-microbial surface designs are discussed, and future directions will be outlined.

T1 - Morphological and mechanical investigations of bariumalumoborosilicate glass surfaces processed with 700-fs laser pulses N2 - We present surface micro-modifications of bariumalumoborosilicate glasses with a high transformation temperature near 700 °C. Laser processing of the glass substrate was realized by using ultra-short laser pulses at 800 nm. The morphological conversion of the laser-treated surfaces was characterized by scanning force microscopy and nano-indentation. A hardness increase by at least a factor of six on the laser ablation crater edge relative to illuminated non- ablated areas shows that the material in the crater walls underwent drastic morphological and mechanical changes. In this heat- and shock-affected zone, the material became more elastic as a result of increased stress.

T1 - Femtosecond laser micromachining of technical materials N2 - Micromachining experiments were performed with Ti:sapphire laser pulses (130 fs - 150 fs, 800 nm, approximately 10 Hz) in air. Employing the direct focusing technique, highly absorbing titanium nitride (TiN) and weakly absorbing polyimide (PI) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) served as target materials. The lateral and vertical precision of the laser ablation and morphological features were characterized by scanning force (SFM), scanning electron (SEM) and optical microscopy. For TiN, incubation can be observed, i.e. the single-pulse surface damage threshold (0.26 J/cm2) is by a factor of two greater than the threshold for 100 pulses. Ablation rates below 10 nm per pulse can be achieved. The evolution of sub-wavelength ripples is presented in dependence on pulse number and laser fluence, respectively. The incubation behavior of the polymers can be described by an accumulation model as for TiN. Experiments on PI with varying focal lengths result in the same modification thresholds. Different polarization states of light (linear, circular) lead to a variation of the ablation rate and to various morphological patterns in the ablation craters (wavelength ripples, cones). Swelling of PMMA occurred at fluences below the ablation threshold.

T1 - Laser micromachining of barium aluminium borosilicate glass with pulse durations between 20 fs and 3 ps N2 - Laser-micromachining of high-tech glass has been extended down to a pulse duration of 20 fs generated by a Ti sapphire laser system at a wavelength of 780 nm. A systematic electronmicroscopic study shows that, below 100 fs, an extreme precision and a substantial decrease of the ablation threshold fluence with respect to pulse laser processing with pulses in the picosecond and nanosecond range could be achieved. The technical relevance of this novel microtechnology is discussed. The morphology of the ablated areas is not determined by thermal processes, i.e. the heat affected zone. It is controlled by non-linear optical coupling effects. Multi-photon absorption becomes highly efficient below laser pulse durations of 100 fs so that light penetration is minimized and ablation cavities become smooth. At longer pulse durations, a higher light penetration due to a lower number of non-linearly absorbed photons allows mechanical relaxation processes in the glass material leading to roughening.

T1 - Biomaterial immobilization on polyurethane films by XeCl excimer laser processing N2 - Zusammenfassung The surface chemical modification of polyurethane (PU) films was performed by an UV laser-induced chemical reaction in a polysaccharide solution. This process may be applicable as hydrophilic packaging of implantable medical devices and in vivo sensors. When a PU film in contact with an aqueous alginic acid (AAC) solution was irradiated with a XeCl laser, the PU film turned hydrophilic. Contact angles of water on the film were reduced from 110° to 60°. Since light absorption of the AAC solution at 308 nm was negligibly small, reactive sites were generated solely on the PU surface. There, AAC could be immobilized by chemical bonds thus allowing for a nanometer-scaled grafting of this biomolecule. The mechanism was investigated by surface analyses with Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), dye staining, ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. A one-photon photochemical process could beidentified.
